Sir i have doubt to the answer of Q10(Set 3) William james seems to be more associated with stream of consciousness as he coined the term.if your answer is true please enlightened me with explaination
ReplyDeleteyes..i have same doubt
DeleteYes, William James coined the term first in psychology but James Joyce was a major pioneer in the use of stream of consciousness in literature. So, his name is associated with the term in literature (especially in English Literature). He used the technique in his writing before other writers.
